Wild Yeast Mead stopped?

[Myke]

I had honey water with some fruit and herbs in it sit in a jar with cheesecloth on it for 3 days stirring often. The day I transfered it to a container with an airlock it really bubbled when I stirred it. Now with the air lock on there I see tiny bubbles surfacing but not really too much.
I have a feeling it's not doing anything. My wine berries have surfaced and there is a sludgy looking stuff on the bottom (could be the herbs)
Is it possible the concoction didn't gather enough wild yeasts before I transferred?
Should I taste it?
It's safe to taste it right?
